SPOKANE, Wash. — It's rare for an underdog like Delaware to question where it gets placed in the bracket.

Then again, few teams got a tougher break than the Blue Hens.

Seeded 13th, Delaware found itself up against one of the favorites to win the national championship in fourth-seeded Michigan State. Coach Monte Ross insists his team would have beaten about anyone Thursday night. Instead, Delaware lost 93-78.
